Best Japanese dramas for learning - Kuroro - 2015-07-06 I was going through the stickies and a lot of them suggest watching a japanese drama, I was wondering which one I should start out with. I was hoping to come across a thread similar to the one for recommended manga but I can't seem to find it, so which one do you suggest? I know none of them but I was hoping to find a fairly ordinary/easy one, ideally dealing with the lives of students, with subtitles in japanese (do you know where I can find them in .srt or .ass ready for vlc?) Best Japanese dramas for learning - Bokusenou - 2015-07-06 There are a few listed here: http://forum.koohii.com/showthread.php?pid=202196#pid202196 In that thread they also recommended this link: http://japaneselevelup.com/media-guide/ Good luck! Best Japanese dramas for learning - Kuroro - 2015-07-06 Thank you! Best Japanese dramas for learning - nightbreak - 2015-07-07 Some i use: * "hard subtitles" japanese and chinese. * 孤独のグルメ If you like food. You can find japanese subtitles for season 2 easily. If any has japanese subtitle for an other season, let me know :-) * https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLpu_ebrsSLZbwuVSohXh083ZJu_en0XU0 short (and ugly) anime from the 80th that have hard subtitles. bad quality of image, but relatively easy to understand. * * Some really really nice short horror story you can understand even if you dont get the dialogs. Best Japanese dramas for learning - Kuroro - 2015-07-07 Thanks a lot Nightbreak I'll check them out Best Japanese dramas for learning - anki_evryday - 2015-07-16 I just got a hulu.jp account, and I hear that netflix will be in japan by this fall. I second 孤独のグルメ if you're looking specifically for a japanese show and they also have dubbed american shows. The thing is you have to use a proxy or vpn to seem like you have a japanese IP in order to watch the videos on hulu.jp. I use Express VPN, which costs about ~$20 per month, their Tokyo server gives me a pretty fast connection while streaming. Hulu.jp costs about 1000 yen (~$8). I also recommend 日本人の知らない日本語, which is a super fun look at the japanese language. We should really start a thread of shows by JLPT level similar to the manga thread.
